“We don’t worry with Murray,” DMX rapped, referring to his lawyer, Murray Richman, who left court carrying a copy of The Post.

“We don’t worry with Murray/He get you outta jail in a hurray/When the government trying to bury you, you good/Early!” the rapper, born Earl Simmons, belted out following a hearing to discuss plans filing legal objections to the case.

He described Richman, his long-time lawyer, as like a father to him — prompting the lawyer to joke that being Simmons’ dad was “a b—-.”

Simmons, 46, was arrested last week and charged in a multiyear scheme to evade $1.7 million in taxes.

Manhattan federal prosecutors said Simmons took special care to avoid paying the IRS, including funneling his paychecks into accounts run by his managers so that they could then pay him in cash.

He faces as much as 38 years in prison if convicted on all 14 counts, including obstructing the IRS’s normal course of business.

At Monday’s hearing, Richman told Judge Jed Rakoff that the government has agreed to grant Simmons permission to travel for his performances — an unresolved issue following his initial presentation Friday.

Richman declined afterward to discuss the case, except to say that Simmons plans to hire a much larger team to tackle his case, including tax accountants and lawyers who specialize in tax law.

An upbeat and cheerful Simmons spoke freely with reporters, including about his night at the Manhattan Correctional Center after he turned himself last Thursday.

He said the people at the federal prison in downtown Manhattan were nice but the food, including a baloney and cheese sandwich he called the “bullpen sandwich,” was “disgusting.”
